#Wool Quilt

I had enough of the fabric from my large olive quilt that I was able to make a smaller version. This one is about 52x52 inches. The quilting is going beautifully and again I am in love with the loft this natural wool batting is giving. This quilt will be raffled next month to benefit friends in Gaza. I will share the details when I have them.

Wool is an incredible fiber, valued and beloved for so many reasons. Wool can make a fabulous batting inside of a quilt! But it isn't very often that I find antique, American quilts with wool inside. Wool needs a different method of care than cotton does!. When I first laid eyes on this amazing quilt I did a double take because it looked like...it was covered in fur. Yikes and yikes. Upon closer inspection, I realized it wasn't fur but very, very soft, natural sheep's wool (confirmed by pulling a piece and performing a burn test) . Someone had (brace yourselves) put it in a hot, electric dryer 😭 The beautiful, soft wool which had been on the inside had now pushed through the fabric weave to the outside (@hexagontextile has shared that the term for this is "bearding") and had felted all over the front and back. The shrinking of the wool, due to the heat of the dryer, caused the quilt to crinkle. Such an incredible quilt, covered in felted wool... I spent *a loooong time* using my fingers to remove as much wool as I could possibly get off the front and back. Slowly it began to come back to life! This quilt is choc full of incredible 19th century fabric bits and the smallest patches are those tiny 4 patches with inch wide squares. It's just amazing and I felt it deserved the TLC it took to get the majority of the wool off. This quilt will be made available this week for clients who appreciate the beauty of wool, and don't mind a little natural wool showing in and on their quilts. Once you hold it and feel the softness and bounce, you'll agree - it's too special not to enjoy in it's current state!

A whole cloth quilt is a quilt with two whole prices of fabric for both the top and back of the quilt. No piecing or cutting involved! I love making whole cloth quilts because they are quick & easy and a great way to practice your skills if you are a beginner. Bonus- they are super fun to gift when you want to something handmade but don’t have the time to commit to a quilt pattern.
